    Do gites take cash or credit cards?

    Starting from Le Puy in early Sept - do I need cash to pay gites or do they take payment with credit card? Do most towns have ATM's?

    Luggage storage in Paris?

    Just wondering if anyone knows a reasonably priced luggage storage depot in Paris. We leave Paris (after flying in from Australia) on Aug 31st to travel to Le Puy and begin walking towards SJPDP. Need to leave a bag for the duration of the walk.

    Booking ahead?

    Thanks Falcon - yes it does seem that pre-booking a few days ahead is the accepted practice. Maybe a few hotels, but mostly a gite budget!

    Booking ahead?

    Wow, I hope we can catch up to you. Would be great to meet you - given that we aren't booking ahead we'll probably meet you whilst desperately trying to find somewhere to stay & eat!

    Booking ahead?

    We're starting from Le Puy on Sept 1st (well, that's the plan!). Having not done the pre-booking accommodation routine before, how many days ahead do we need to book? Is it possible, or advisable, to 'just wing it' and not pre-book?
